It's almost camp time!

Alpha Bits campers will be here before we know it.

Here's what our deans, Erica and Morgan, want you to know.

"Come join us as we learn how we are each Wonderfully Made. We will dive into the Bible and hear how God made us each uniquely, how God made us to love Him, and how God made us to love others. We will have lessons, crafts, games, and worship that will allow us to explore how God made us and help us see how we can glorify Him."

Don't miss out! Sign up at westernbuckeyecamp.org now!
